Little Daredevil

My sweet baby is a little angelface masking a daredevil! She really has shown that she has quite her own daring (albeit entertaining) personality, but today she tried to elevate daring to a whole new level! We were buzzing about doing our own things this morning, getting ready to go and visit family and run some errands, and my littlest girlie was entertaining herself quietly - or so it seemed! I believe she was actually formulating a plan to have some fun of her own... She took the lid off of a faux-leather storage ottoman that we have in the living room (filled with toys, of course) and carried it to the top of the family room stairs. Mommy caught her as she set it down at the top of the stairs (slippery side down, of course!) and she was just starting to climb on top of it when I caught her in the act. She was about to go sledding down the stairs!! I may have to put a bell on her, so she can't sneak around so quietly! ;)

That is even more daring than standing up in your high chair to practice balancing!

Yes, yes it is...

Wait did I miss something...she tired to stand up in her high chair?

Okay I love the bell idea.

No -- when L was K's age, and Grandpa was babysitting and he was telling me about this really funny time when L stood up in her high chair and how great her balance was -- he took a picture, I have it somewhere. I was not quite as impressed with her balance at the time, as Grandpa was!
